Exotic Black Rice Tortillas, Easy Tostadas & Giveaway

byBarbonMarch 19, 2014

Food For Life makes some really great products: Breads, cereals, even vegan meats! If you’re gluten-free, chances are you’ve tried their products. Even if you’re not GF, you probably have. I happen to love me some gluten, but I buy their Ezekial 4:9 bread on a regular basis. They recently sent me a couple packages of their Black Rice Tortillas to try. They’re a beautiful dark purple, and hearty and chewy like GF tortillas are. Because they’re GF they are more dry than the traditional flour version, but still very tasty. I didn’t put mine in the fridge right away like I was supposed to, and they got even drier, so I decided to skip trying to roll them (although if you put them in the microwave they do soften right up). I went for a super-easy-cheater-tostada instead! I simply heated a tortilla and covered with with vegetarian refried beans (I used the recipe from JL’s upcoming pressure cooker cookbook!), chopped tomatoes, enchilada sauce, vegan sour cream and smashed avocados. I said “easy”, didn’t I?

The Giveaway

One lucky reader will receive two free packages of Exotic Black Rice Tortillas from Food For Life.

Yum! I’m pretty sure I’m the only person on the planet who hasn’t tried Ezekial bread, but it’s on my to-do list. (Generally price is what holds me back…). I LOVE tortillas and would love a chance to try these!

Yep, loved these things. But I wish they’d roll up without breaking. I blame the fact that it’s gluten-free. But still … tasty. On those lo mein noodz, it looks like, after some googling, that some contain eggs and some do not. I’d always heard they were egg noodles, but apparently, some are just made with wheat. Just depends on the brand.
